…which reminded me of this song by German power metal heroes, Helloween:

I was super into Helloween in ’88-’89 and now that seems like I must have had a brain parasite for those years. Holy shit, this is dreadful. I challenge you to listen to the whole thing. Go on, fucking try it. I’ll wait.
Just awful, wasn’t it?
But when I was 13, this stuff was gold. Songs about putting armour on and killing satan? Awesome!
I had two t-shirts with the cover art to Keeper of The Seven Keys Pt 1 and KOTSK Pt 2. I wore them ALL THE TIME.
You know you can still get that shirt?
I’m SO buying that for your birthday.
“Hey, nice t-shirt, is that a band?”
“Nope.”
“Kinda looks like album artwork.”
“It isn’t. You shouldn’t listen to it even if it was. Which it isn’t. Stop looking at me.”
